Golden Anniversary Card

On my blog yesterday, I talked about our family friend who asked me to make her two cards; a 50th (golden) anniversary card & a Disney themed birthday card for an 8yo. Check out my blog from yesterday for my Elsa card. Today I'm going to show you the 50th Anniversary Card I've made:

I have made this card with a 6x6" Whisper White cardstock base. The black & white print paper is from my stash. I have layered the Gold Foil cardstock with another layer of Whisper White cardstock on top. I have heat embossed this card with Gold powder using Versamark ink & a Heat Tool.

The stamps are from the Number of Years stamp set. I have cut out the 50 using the matching Large Numbers framelits on the Big Shot with the Precision Plate, using more Gold Foil cardstock. You can save 15% when you buy these stamps & dies in a bundle! See the Occasions Catalog link on the left for more info. I have propped the 50 up on Dimensionals, cut in halves to fit the width of the numbers.

Heat Embossing Tips:

Use the Emboss Buddy pillow on the cardstock before you stamp it. This will take any static away & keep it from holding onto any little flakes of powder where you don't want them (like fingerprints)!

Make sure you do the heat embossing before you attach that piece to the card as it melts the glue.

You can use masking tape or washi tape to temporarily attach the cardstock to your work surface before you heat emboss to keep it from curling.

I have followed the same layering on the inside & also heat embossed with Gold again. This was a really easy but effective card to put together & I even used another sheet of the black & white print paper to make an envelope, as it's plain white on one side. I used the Envelope Punch Board to make my matching 6x6" envelope & I put the black & white printed side on the inside so the outside of the envelope is white.
